    x = 8, y = - 5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Solve the following system:

    {x + y = 3 | (equation 1)

    3 x + 2 y = 14 | (equation 2)

    Swap equation 1 with equation 2:

    {3 x + 2 y = 14 | (equation 1)

    x + y = 3 | (equation 2)

    Subtract 1/3 * (equation 1) from equation 2:

    {3 x + 2 y = 14 | (equation 1)

    0 x+y/3 = - 5/3 | (equation 2)

    Multiply equation 2 by 3:

    {3 x + 2 y = 14 | (equation 1)

    0 x+y = - 5 | (equation 2)

    Subtract 2 * (equation 2) from equation 1:

    {3 x+0 y = 24 | (equation 1)

    0 x+y = - 5 | (equation 2)

    Divide equation 1 by 3:

    {x+0 y = 8 | (equation 1)

    0 x+y = - 5 | (equation 2)

    Collect results:

    Answer: {x = 8, y = - 5
